Slush funds for sexual assault victims of Congress would help pay for tax plan. US Congress could not care less about their constituents. Democrats spends what little time they are in DC causing trouble. Have no intentions of advancing the plight of the American PEOPLE. It would not advance cause of PARTY.

Republicans so afraid of their own shadow they prefer to follow than lead. Instead of standing up for what is right cower in fear of losing “control”. Again PARTY over PEOPLE is front and center.

Meanwhile all those in Congress cash their pay checks regularly. It is far past time for them to start EARNING taxpayers’ hard earned dollars. Stop running around crying wolf day after day. It is time for CONGRESS to knock off playing Party politics at peril of this Nation. Start working together like grownups.

Results matter. Congress has been given the assignment of cutting taxes. Any Senator that votes NO for tax cuts had better have plan for bigger tax cuts. Taxpayer’s do not discriminate. Republicans, Democrats, Bernie and Angus alike. Get the job done or GO HOME.

Mr. Scaramucci’s vulgar language was in poor taste. Which is worst? Saying rude obnoxious things during a private conversation? Printing the drivel for no constructive purpose? You be the judge.

According to the First Amendment Anthony Scaramucci has the right to say whatever he wants. Thanks to God he has been given free will. There is no question that his comments were offensive. So why didn’t they offend me? They certainly should have.

The language used in Scaramucci’s statements was mild compared to what we have been being exposed to for far too long. It seems that we as a Nation have become desensitized to such things. Movies, music, television shows, video games, social media and much more have made permissive sex, foul language, violence and deviance of all kinds commonplace.

Democratic Congress members push each other out of their way to get to the nearest camera to bash President Trump. They certainly are not shy about using vulgarity when referring to the President of The United States of America along with anyone else not buying what they are selling.

The main stream media engages in daily attacks on the President of the United States of America slinging mud that is certainly offensive lacking any sense of decorum. For those same people affected with verbal diarrhea to feign outrage over the words used by Anthony Scaramucci is absurd.

Obamacare has repealed itself. Contrary to what our fearless Democratic leaders in Washington, DC would have us believe, people weren’t dying in the streets before Obamacare and won’t be after. Well, unless they were veterans. But, that is something to discuss another time.

Considering that Obamacare has more pages than the Bible is it any wonder that Nancy Pelosi instructed Democrats to vote for it without knowing the content. Congress didn’t have the time to actually read the bill. Let that be a lesson for the Republicans and Democrats alike. Know what you are saddling the American people with before making it law.

The best solution seems to be to blame President Trump for all our healthcare issues. He does have a lot of gall so it is no wonder that I had to have my gallbladder removed. So maybe that is not fair. He didn’t make me eat onions. The debate or lack thereof in Washington makes no more sense than my theory. Or does it?

When big business has much to win or lose depending on which way the wind blows you can bet they push hard to get what they want. When those same businesses donate big bucks to the coffers of US Congress Members’ campaigns one has to ask if there is not a conflict of interest somewhere.

Of course pre-existing conditions should be covered. But, at what cost? Necessary medical care should be available to all. Again, at what cost? Maybe Congress should forget about those lining their pockets. Instead they should focus on the job at hand entrusted to them by their constituents.

The problem isn’t who should pay for the care. The United States is a wealthy country. However, we do have our limits. When non-profit hospitals pay their top administration millions while suing poor people in small claims courts there is a problem. The cost of five gallbladder surgeries result in bills of five different amounts. Prescription medications cost enough to allow pharmaceutical companies to pay millions to lobbyists to strong-arm the politicians they contribute more millions to.

It is time for Congress to stop all the nonsense and get to work. Not one Democrat had the backbone to stand up to the powers at bee and vote yes to repeal Obamacare and discuss ways to fix the mess it has created.

The best way to provide affordable healthcare to all is to make actual healthcare affordable. Lining the pockets of those in the healthcare, pharmaceutical and medical industries only helps them at the expense of the United States’ taxpayers.

Is it any wonder that Democrats are imploding? When a political party’s only message is “resist” one must ask. Resist what? Making America Great Again is the President’s objective. Democrats in Congress articulate daily they intend to do whatever it takes to stop President Trump from accomplishing his goal. If it is at the expense of the American People, so be it.

A civilized society requires civilized leaders of which are few and far between in the United States Congress. Congress was not meant to run by consensus. But, when Democrats refuse to do anything other than hysterical fear mongering instead of the jobs taxpayers are paying them to do that is what Republicans must do to get anything done.

Under the leadership of Whimper and Whine the main focus of the Democratic Party has been to vilify President Trump and the voters that support him. Here is a clue. If Democrats want the votes of those now supporting Republicans they must earn them.

Maybe if Democrats stopped complaining and actually sat down at the table like grownups it would help. If they continue to derelict their duty Democrats have no right to complain about whatever the Republicans come up with. At least the Republicans are attempting to make life better for this Nation.

When the head of the DNC cannot open his mouth without obscenities spilling out the Democrats have a problem. When Democratic Congress Members call for the impeachment of a President because he is from another party it only makes them look foolish. When Democratic leaders’ best defense for their bad behavior is “republicans were naughty first” it is childish.

Democrats have diminished the offices they hold with their total disregard for the people they serve. They have set the bar so low for common decency that it is disgraceful. If and when a Democrat can win an election they will reap what they are now sowing.

Most alarming is the toxic tone of Democrats in Congress. No longer willing to debate the merits of an issue they resort to name calling, fear mongering, lies and innuendos. Worse yet they diminish those who dare challenge them including their own constituents.

The Democrats direct anyone that will listen to stop President Trump, Republicans and anyone else that doesn’t agree with them at all costs. Terms like “fight” and rhetoric filled with hate speech designed to make people believe their lives are being threatened have consequences. The fact they know it isn’t true is unconscionable. The resulting violence is of no concern to them.

A house divided cannot stand. The same is true of a Nation. Democrats can blame President Trump all they want. But, in reality the President is nothing more than a scapegoat being used to justify their mean and hateful lack of civility. Their unacceptable behavior started long before President Trump ever announced he was running for office.

It is time for those participating in this nonsense to be voted out of office. That is what we do in a democracy.
